Pet owners are led to believe that if their cat has a medical issue, their only option is the prescription diet their vet recommends. But a little research can be really beneficial. For example, in the Hill’s s/d formula, there’s a high level of DL-methionine, which is an acidifying amino acid. What most pet owners don’t realize is they can get DL-methionine separately as a palatable paste or tablet, and add it to a diet that is of substantially better quality in terms of protein source, moisture, and carbohydrate content. Of course, if a knowledgeable pet owner refuses the recommended prescription diet and instead asks her veterinarian for palatable DL-methionine to naturally acidify her cat’s urine to resolve struvite stones, she’ll likely be met with stunned silence.
